This one came up today. Say you're trying to do the following equation in MATHR in a 250-1 in DirectSOFT 5:V2000 * SINR(V3000)
The little red light will be on because there is something wrong with it. But what?
Even if the light is RED in the Token Editor, hit the ENTER key - this will display an error message containing the first error that it finds.
In the example above, it tells you the reason why it is invalid:
Not supported in this CPU around "SINR" at character position 9 (did you know that the trigonometric functions are not supported in the 250?)
Any kind of free-format text entry (PRINT, VPRINT, ECEMAIL, MATHBCD, MATHR, MATHBIN, etc.), if you still get a RED LIGHT even after you think you have it right, hit enter to see what's wrong.
